1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThe pathogenesis of inflammation in eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) and non-eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (NECRS) remains poorly understood. This study aimed to assess immune cell infiltration within the sinonasal microenvironment in these conditions.

methodsA prospective case-controlled study was conducted to evaluate the expression of CD3, CD11b, CD16, and CD19 in CRS. Sinonasal mucosal sections from patients with ECRS (n = 18), NECRS (n = 27), and normal controls (n = 12) were analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Preoperative clinical data, including sinonasal symptoms, allergy and asthma status, endoscopic Lund‒Kennedy score, radiological Lund‒Mackay score, and peripheral blood morphological parameters, were collected. Expression profiles were then correlated with clinical data.

resultsSignificant differences were observed in the number of CD11b-positive and CD19-positive cells between ECRS and NECRS patients, as well as in the number of CD3-positive cells in CRS groups compared to controls. In ECRS patients, a positive correlation was found between the expression of CD16-positive and CD11b-positive cells. Additionally, elevated B-cell expression in this group was associated with olfactory dysfunction and the radiological severity of lesions.

conclusionOur study reveals distinct inflammatory patterns in ECRS and NECRS and provides new insights into the underlying mechanisms of CRS. The assessment of CD11b, CD16, and CD19 expression could potentially serve as biomarkers to predict treatment response, especially in patients undergoing monoclonal antibody therapy.
